Reply to comment by khag in Divided Pennsylvania House elects Democrat Rozzi as speaker by boundfortrees

Would you be willing to contact him and ask him to let McClinton stay on as majority leader and kill the anti-reproductive rights constitutional amendment the Republicans were trying to force through? I'm going to email him too but it might be more impactful coming from someone in his district.

Considering he voted against SB106 when it was passed for the first time, I doubt he’d bring it up for its second vote

Oh I'd agree and I mean I doubt the Dems would have voted for him unanimously if he supported the Republican amendments, but better to keep some pressure up now

He doesn’t control whether McClinton will be Majority Leader. House Democrats will either vote for her or someone else.

I don't doubt House Democrats will vote for her, but with the chamber being 101-101, with him being the tiebreaking vote(and speaker), he decides who will be in the majority. Dems have indicated he will support their majority even if he doesn't caucus with them, but he hasn't really said anything publicly on the matter himself.
